16. Chapter 15
Tongshan is thirty miles outside the city, and it is too slow to ride a carriage. Xie Lanyin wants to come back within one day and must ride a horse.
Before learning to ride a horse, Xie Lanyin took her cousin to beg her mother to let her go out.
When Jiang learned about the purpose of his cousins, he was a little distracted.
She and her husband met in Tongshan.
Before she left the house, she liked the fun of fun. She went to Tongshan to sing with her several times. The last time she met Xie Hui. At that time, Xie Hui was still a cold young man, and only led her eldest son to travel here. The two were not familiar with each other and became fascinated by walking. The brother was helpful and invited him to walk with her, but Xie Hui was hypocritical and always looked at her...
Recalling the first encounter with her husband, Jiang's eyes unconsciously showed tenderness and sweetness.
Xie Lanyin blinked and couldn't help laughing. Mother missed Dad again. Every time she mentioned Dad, she would do this.
Jiang Huaizhou also saw his aunt's strangeness and suddenly hit his palm, "I remember it! My uncle and aunt met in Tongshan. I remember hearing my mother mention it when I was a child."
The past was exposed by his nephew. Jiang was very embarrassed and wanted to reveal it. Xie Lanyin refused to let go. Yang's mother told her. How could Jiang have the nerve to say it, and tried to change the topic. Xie Lanyin took the opportunity to bargain, "It's okay if my mother doesn't say it, but she went to Tongshan when she was a child, so it doesn't matter if I go? Grandma is so open-minded, and she can't lose to grandma!"
He was caught by his daughter. Jiang, a "unright" mother, had no confidence to restrain her daughter. Moreover, the beautiful scenery of Tongshan is a good place to visit, and there is no danger. Jiang nodded.
With permission, Xie Lanyin turned her head excitedly and discussed with her cousin that she would go riding a horse in the afternoon.
Jiang reminded his daughter with a funny look: "Go and buy two pairs of boots first. If you have men's clothing, you must not miss the boots for riding horses."
Xie Lanyin looked at the red satin embroidered shoes on her feet and smiled with her head raised.
In the morning, the brother and sister went to the shop to choose a few pairs of horse boots. After the tour, Xie Lanyin and his cousin discussed the time to set off and returned to Yaoyue Pavilion. The parrot followed behind with his stuff.
"Girl, my wife sent someone to send you these things to change your clothes when riding a horse." Sangzhi placed a few pairs of pants on the couch and signaled to the girl to see, "The thighs were specially thickened here, saying that it was not easy to rub them when riding a horse. The lady was so careful. I thought that on the way, I heard from the girl that she wanted to learn to ride a horse, and then I would be ready."
Xie Lanyin touched the thickened area, lifted it up and looked at it, and said disgusted in the mirror: "Isn't it too bloated?"
When the parrot heard that she didn't want to wear it, he hurriedly advised: "Mrs. She can ride a horse. Since she is ready, she must be thinking about the girl. If the girl doesn't listen, she will turn around and turn her fart... Her thighs are scratched, what should I do if I delay my trip?"
She almost said the vulgar words, Xie Lanyin smiled and glared at her, then looked at the mirror, "I'll try it first."
He tried it as soon as he said, and ordered Sangzhi to take men's clothing. He changed everything from top to bottom, with a white round neck robe, a medium pants of the same color, and a long boot of deer skin and soap horns on his feet. Even if he could see that he was a girl, he was a little heroic. Xie Lanyin was very satisfied. He turned his head and looked at it. He found that the thickness of the pants was not visible, and it did not affect his figure. After resting, he wore this outfit to meet Jiang Huaizhou.
The little cousin looked like he was praising her, Jiang Huaizhou praised her with a smile and took Xie Lanyin to the horse farm in the suburbs of the Jiang family.
"Go and choose a horse first," Jiang Huaizhou looked at the stables when he arrived. "I have a few good horses, but unfortunately you are short and can't ride. I'll choose a docile one for you."
Xie Lanyin knew nothing about these things, and followed his cousin to look around.
When I saw this, I saw a pair of masters and servants.
Xiao Yuan was leading Lu Jun to select horses. He had a magic horse when he was in the capital. Unfortunately, he was too arrogant and could easily reveal his identity, so he asked him to follow the ceremonial guard to enter the palace. On the way, he changed two horses in a row, but he was not very satisfied. He was relatively idle today. He heard that the Jiang family raised all the good horses outside the border, so he came here to choose them himself.
He chose all living things like horses and birds by himself.
Hearing a familiar soft voice from afar, Xiao Yuan raised his eyes in confusion, and saw the little girl walking over with her brother in men's clothing and laughing. He saw the person clearly. The little girl also saw him and stopped there in surprise. The horse farm was vast, the sky was high and the earth was far away. She was wearing white clothes, like a magnolia flower floating in the wind, beautiful and beautiful.
The disappointment that had originally arisen because he didn't find a good horse suddenly disappeared at this moment.
"Three Young Master and Five Girls."
Xiao Yuanlang greeted and walked over calmly.
Seeing that it was them, Jiang Huaizhou was surprised and happy, and came forward and said, "Brother Yuan is here to see the horse?"
Xiao Yuan nodded, "I heard that all the good horses in Xi'an came from the noble mansion, so I came to take a look. The third young master also came to choose a horse?"
Jiang Huaizhou looked at his cousin and smiled and said, "Yes, the sister who is so playful and wants to learn riding a horse, so I will choose one for her first. How long has Brother Yuan been here? Did you meet someone you like?" As he spoke, he quickly glanced at the horse farm manager who was following the customer to serve.
The manager shook his head in a difficult situation.
Xiao Yuan had already replied politely: "I just arrived. Since the third young master also wants to choose a horse, why not let us go together?"
Jiang Huaizhou thought he was polite and did not want to be honest in front of him that the horse that did not catch his eye here was a little guilty, and it was difficult to expose it, so he made a gesture of invitation and asked Xiao Yuan about his request for the horse while walking.
Women love clothes and jewelry, men love horses and swords, and they tend to forget the next ones when they talk. Xie Lanyin silently accompanied the two to a row of stables. Seeing that his cousin was just trying to please the guests and forgot her, he was a little unhappy, but he could not ruin the business of the horse farm. So he stared at the horse himself. As he walked, he saw a snow-white horse with no dishevel in his body and immediately fell in love with it.
"Third cousin, I want this one." Xie Lanyin gently pulled his cousin's sleeve and said happily.
As soon as she spoke, Xiao Yuan moved faster than Jiang Huaizhou. He immediately stood still and turned around to look at the little girl's favorite horse.
"Is this horse a little taller to you?" Jiang Huaizhou walked to the stable, touched the white horse's head, and said hesitantly that the horses on the horse farm were all good horses. My little cousin only rode occasionally, and hesitated. He chose any horse's body and temper.
Xie Lanyin stood beside him, touching the white horse's soft white hair, then looked at the beautiful and beautiful eyes, and liked it more and more. She begged her cousin, "My third cousin asked me to try it first. If you don't try it, how do you know I can't reach the stirrup?" She had long legs, and it was hard to tell her cousin in front of outsiders.
Jiang Huaizhou still felt that the white horse was too tall and advised his cousin to go and see the next one again.
Xie Lanyin wanted this one, pulled his sleeve, shook it and called his cousin sweetly, and knocked on the window like the wind and rain, touching the heart.
Jiang Huaizhou was a little shaken. Xiao Yuan next to him raised his hand and held it on the railing casually, feeling his legs weak.
"Since the fifth girl likes it, the third young master will come out and let her try it." After calming her mood, Xiao Yuan helped Xie Lanyin.
He liked to listen to her and had heard her act coquettishly with her relatives from afar, but it was the first time she had heard her begging her so closely. Xiao Yuan didn't expect that the sound would be so stimulating to him, so he had to pretend to hold the stable fence and lean over to cover up the strangeness in the hem of his clothes. So no matter how close he liked to listen, he had to interrupt her in order to avoid embarrassment.
The man pleaded for her, and Xie Lanyin leaned over and glanced at him gratefully.
Xiao Yuan smiled faintly and looked away before the little girl.
Xie Lanyin looked at his cousin again with a flattering look.
Jiang Huaizhou had no choice but to take care of her, looked at Baima's gentle eyes, and turned to the manager sideways, "Go and get a saddle."
The manager agreed with a smile.
Xiao Yuan's breathing place was almost done, so he took a few steps back and made way out of the place.
The manager went in and led the horse. Xie Lanyin followed the white horse with his eyes. He guessed that his cousin would continue to accompany the young master Yuan to pick up. She listened impatiently and caught up with the manager in three or two steps. She walked backwards and said to Jiang Huaizhou with a smile: "Three cousin, you guys are busy first, I'll see them match the saddle!"
Jiang Huaizhou chuckled and waved his hand at her, "Okay, walk well, fall carefully."
Xie Lanyin immediately turned around.
Jiang Huaizhou watched her cousin walk for a while, and asked Xiao Yuan to walk forward and said helplessly: "My sister is the youngest daughter in the family. She grew up with spoiledness, so the rules are a little loose."
Xiao Yuanyao looked at the blue sky in front of him, "It is a blessing for the fifth girl to grow up carefree. In the future, I will meet my requests."
Jiang Huaizhou was surprised that he would be so emotional and asked with a smile: "Brother Yuan is a handsome and talented person. There are endless people who want to come to propose marriage. Why hasn't he married yet?"
"Let's start a career first." Xiao Yuan replied calmly. After saying that, he thought of Xie Lanyin pulling his brother's sleeve and acting coquettishly. He then thought about the occasional encounter between cousins and sisters together. Xiao Yuan smiled meaningfully at Jiang Huaizhou, "Look at the third son and the fifth girl get along well, Yuan congratulated in advance."
Jiang Huaizhou was stunned for a moment before he realized the meaning of this sentence. He laughed out loud, "Brother Yuan misunderstood. In my eyes, Lan Yin is just a child. She only treats me as her brother, and she has no intention of being apart."
Xiao Yuan hurriedly blamed himself, "I miss you, don't blame the third son."
Jiang Huaizhou was not the one who was waiting for a small belly. He continued to watch the horses with him. After walking the row again, he saw that Xiao Yuan was still unwilling to be satisfied. After thinking for a while, Jiang Huaizhou suddenly knocked on the fan and said to Xiao Yuan: "I just transported ten good horses from the frontier last month, and two of them have not been completely tamed yet. I will order someone to take them out and show Brother Yuan?"
Interest appeared in Xiao Yuanfeng's eyes. The more talented a person is, the less likely he will surrender to others. The same is true for taming a horse.
"Take those two horses to the racecourse." Jiang Huaizhou turned around and ordered another clerk, and he also led Xiao Yuan's master and servant to the racecourse.
